Idk about other sec schools but Ole Miss has zero housing on campus for upper classmen. It’s freshmen only and then not even close to enough. The university contracted with many apartment complexes and freshmen will be living there as well.

I know that students are admitted and some percentage will decline and go elsewhere. I also know that OM is growing like mad and OM can’t do anything about it .. their IHL sets the standards and it’s quite low. Sadly.

It’s already happening. I am told by people in admissions that they’re expecting a decline nationwide due to a decreasing population in the high school/approaching college age.

Hadn’t seen it yet though.

My daughter was denied a waiver. Such BS. I have a townhouse in Lake Beau Pre.


huh? why would you be denied?? lake Beau Pre is within 50 miles.

from LSU admissions: Exemption:

Reside with parent or legal guardian within a 50-mile in-state radius of campus
Documentation to provide: None. Your ZIP code auto-populates into the housing exemption request. Review the failure to comply information below.

or

Reside in a property within a 50-mile in-state radius of campus that is owned by, but not occupied as a primary residence, an immediate family member (parent, legal guardian, or grandparent) with a bill of sale prior to October 1, 2017
Documentation to provide: Bill of sale

Either 1) they don’t reside there. Baw just has property there. And they suddenly tried using that address after all student correspondence was from a different (and actual) home address.

Or 2) it was purchased after 2017
